## Why
Cloud-hosted sessions need a way for the service that starts or manages
a thread to provide session-owned config without treating all config as
if it came from the same user/project/workspace TOML stack.
The important boundary is ownership: some values should be controlled by
the session/orchestrator, some by the authenticated user, and later some
may come from the executor. The earlier broad config-store shape made
that boundary too fuzzy and overlapped heavily with the existing
filesystem-backed config loader. This PR starts with the smaller piece
we need now: a typed session config loader that can feed the existing
config layer stack while preserving the normal precedence and merge
behavior.
## What Changed
- Added `ThreadConfigLoader` and related typed payloads in
`codex-config`.
- `SessionThreadConfig` currently supports `model_provider`,
`model_providers`, and feature flags.
- `UserThreadConfig` is present as an ownership boundary, but does not
yet add TOML-backed fields.
- `NoopThreadConfigLoader` preserves existing behavior when no external
loader is configured.
- `StaticThreadConfigLoader` supports tests and simple callers.
- Taught thread config sources to produce ordinary `ConfigLayerEntry`
values so the existing `ConfigLayerStack` remains the place where
precedence and merging happen.
- Wired the loader through `ConfigBuilder`, the config loader, and
app-server startup paths so app-server can provide session-owned config
before deriving a thread config.
- Added coverage for:
- translating typed thread config into config layers,
- inserting thread config layers into the stack at the right precedence,
- applying session-provided model provider and feature settings when
app-server derives config from thread params.
## Follow-Ups
This intentionally stops short of adding the remote/service transport.
The next pieces are expected to be:
1. Define the proto/API shape for this interface.
2. Add a client implementation that can source session config from the
service side.
## Verification
- Added unit coverage in `codex-config` for the loader and layer
conversion.
- Added `codex-core` config loader coverage for thread config layer
precedence.
- Added app-server coverage that verifies session thread config wins
over request-provided config for model provider and feature settings.
## Why
`codex-rs/core/src/config/types.rs` is a plain config-type module with
no dependency on `codex-core`. Moving it into `codex-config` shrinks the
core crate and gives config-only consumers a more natural dependency
boundary.
## What Changed
- Added `codex_config::types` with the moved structs, enums, constants,
and unit tests.
- Kept `codex_core::config::types` as a compatibility re-export to avoid
a broad call-site migration in this PR.
- Switched notice-table writes in `core/src/config/edit.rs` to a local
`NOTICE_TABLE_KEY` constant.
- Added the `wildmatch` runtime dependency and `tempfile` test
dependency to `codex-config`.
## Summary
- move skill loading and management into codex-core-skills
- leave codex-core with the thin integration layer and shared wiring
## Testing
- CI

## Why
Compiling `codex-rs/core` is a bottleneck for local iteration, so this
change continues the ongoing extraction of config-related functionality
out of `codex-core` and into `codex-config`.
The goal is not just to move code, but to reduce `codex-core` ownership
and indirection so more code depends on `codex-config` directly.
## What Changed
- Moved config diagnostics logic from
`core/src/config_loader/diagnostics.rs` into
`config/src/diagnostics.rs`.
- Updated `codex-core` to use `codex-config` diagnostics types/functions
directly where possible.
- Removed the `core/src/config_loader/diagnostics.rs` shim module
entirely; the remaining `ConfigToml`-specific calls are in
`core/src/config_loader/mod.rs`.
- Moved `CONFIG_TOML_FILE` into `codex-config` and updated existing
references to use `codex_config::CONFIG_TOML_FILE` directly.
- Added a direct `codex-config` dependency to `codex-cli` for its
`CONFIG_TOML_FILE` use.
`codex-core` had accumulated config loading, requirements parsing,
constraint logic, and config-layer state handling in a single crate.
This change extracts that subsystem into `codex-config` to reduce
`codex-core` rebuild/test surface area and isolate future config work.
## What Changed
### Added `codex-config`
- Added new workspace crate `codex-rs/config` (`codex-config`).
- Added workspace/build wiring in:
- `codex-rs/Cargo.toml`
- `codex-rs/config/Cargo.toml`
- `codex-rs/config/BUILD.bazel`
- Updated lockfiles (`codex-rs/Cargo.lock`, `MODULE.bazel.lock`).
- Added `codex-core` -> `codex-config` dependency in
`codex-rs/core/Cargo.toml`.
### Moved config internals from `core` into `config`
Moved modules to `codex-rs/config/src/`:
- `core/src/config/constraint.rs` -> `config/src/constraint.rs`
- `core/src/config_loader/cloud_requirements.rs` ->
`config/src/cloud_requirements.rs`
- `core/src/config_loader/config_requirements.rs` ->
`config/src/config_requirements.rs`
- `core/src/config_loader/fingerprint.rs` -> `config/src/fingerprint.rs`
- `core/src/config_loader/merge.rs` -> `config/src/merge.rs`
- `core/src/config_loader/overrides.rs` -> `config/src/overrides.rs`
- `core/src/config_loader/requirements_exec_policy.rs` ->
`config/src/requirements_exec_policy.rs`
- `core/src/config_loader/state.rs` -> `config/src/state.rs`
`codex-config` now re-exports this surface from `config/src/lib.rs` at
the crate top level.
### Updated `core` to consume/re-export `codex-config`
- `core/src/config_loader/mod.rs` now imports/re-exports config-loader
types/functions from top-level `codex_config::*`.
- Local moved modules were removed from `core/src/config_loader/`.
- `core/src/config/mod.rs` now re-exports constraint types from
`codex_config`.
